About me

With experience in local, national and international marketing and having worked for large corporate organisations, government, in retail and commercial property management, at a multi-channel lifestyle retailer and for an exclusive fine art investment groups; my background in brand communications, retail marketing and marketing management is solid and varied.
I love the pace and commerciality of retail and inspiring consumers to fall in love by bringing brands and products to life through storytelling across multiple touch points.
Strong team leadership skills, a dab-hand at multi-tasking and working to tight deadlines, I have a keen eye for detail coupled with the ability to see a project through to delivery.
Currently working on a freelance basis whilst looking for my next role - one that offers exposure at board level, autonomy, a balance between strategic development, hands on execution and team leadership whilst working in an energetic team towards a clear vision - with scope to build on my experience as well as develop and stretch my skill set.

Freelance

I have over 22 years experience in strategic marketing, marketing planning and implementation. I have worked with a number of SME’s in a number of sectors including Technology, Finance, Law and FMCG whilst also working with SME’s in the UK and internationally, helping to drive sales growth, increase brand awareness and grow profitability.
For the past 8 years I have been working on a freelance basis. Originally this was a temporary measure to gain some much need flexibility in my working day whilst raising my son but have found it to be an interesting career path.
I now manage accounts for clients; from small startups needing support through to large companies needing to outsource their marketing efforts. I manage, develop, create, teach and drive campaigns so that my clients can concentrate on their businesses.
For larger campaigns that require many hands, I also offer a project managment service and employ other freelancers (a team I use often) that involve web builds, article writing and SEO. Its a great process and my clients like the fact, everything is in house and only one point of contact for their entire branding, design and strategy.
